This should be a great session. Hopefully, we'll get to answer some questions on pros and cons of different models for studying this difficult tissue.

Interested in injury prevention and rehabilitation in baseball? This might be an interesting meeting. I will talk about ways to possibly prevent injury and how to optimize native tissue repair after injury. It should be fun! tinyurl.com/py869z8k

🧪 New paper alert! We keep trying to understand muscle-tendon crosstalk. Here we determined whether exosomes could explain why serum after resistance exercise makes bigger stronger tendons. Contrary to our hypothesis, it is not exosomes. The search goes on. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

That was a textbook Achilles tendon rupture.

Today I had the honor of speaking in front of nearly 3000 people today at the Woodland #NoKings rally. WE FEAR NO KING BECAUSE WE DONT HAVE ONE ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾 let’s gooooooo

Diabetes affects millions of people, but what if we could better understand how the body naturally regulates blood sugar? Mark Huising is leading NIH-funded research to study how beta cells in the pancreas work together with neighboring cells that secrete hormones that control insulin secretion.

Here is a chance for a young scientist to join one of the most respected labs in the country.

Please join us in Sacramento on Friday, March 7 from 12-4 PM to Stand Up For Science!

I got the chance to chat with Tim Ferriss. We talked all things tendon health and performance. Give it a listen and let me know if you have questions. youtu.be/BnFzjcPTSsc?...

Proud of my University

🧪A nice piece on our research on the UC Davis Health website. The basis for this story is our recent work showing that low intensity long duration (10+ seconds) holds can increase tendon function and strength. Let me know if you have questions or comments. health.ucdavis.edu/news/health-...

The full Davis experience. So awesome

🧪If you are interested in the biology of how exercise (load) can drive tendon/ligament adaptation and recovery, please take a look at this deep dive on the topic from my PhD student Kenneth Tam. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Our latest work on dietary supplements on collagen synthesis in people. In this one, Thorben Aussieker gave people a blend of whey protein and hydrolyzed collagen and labelled phenylalanine incorporation into "matrix" from muscle biopsies increased. Thoughts? doi: 10.1249/MSS.0000000000003596

We did a fun video synopsis of the study while I was still in Maastricht. Would love to hear any feedback youtube.com/watch?v=XXrD...

🧪 new paper alert! This is a fun one. We worked with a professional rock climber and an app developer to determine whether training designed to improve tendon function improved finger strength. Let me know if you have questions. sportsmedicine-open.springeropen.com/articles/10....
